Learn Programming by making Games

I learned how to program making games, it’s by far the most fun way to learn how to program (after typing “Hello World!” on the screen).

I’m a big Arduino Fan for experimenting with electronics and this Kickstarter project (I hope) ends up in every school in the country. I think teachers would be shocked how much creativity kids could put into this device and while making the games they would tech themselves how to code. I’m shocked it’s under $30 as I’ve previously been a big supporter of Arduino Esplora and it’s nowhere near as cool as Arduboy.

“I do think this dynamic around kids growing up, building games and playing games, is an important one because I think this is how a lot of kids get into programming,” he explained. “I definitely would not have gotten into programming if I had not played games as a kid.”
